Hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners struggling to stand

The Israeli prison administration has subjected the prisoners who joined their fellow strikers to collective trials, imposed fines on them and deprived them of family visits in an attempt to thwart the open-ended hunger strike, launched by almost 1,600 prisoners on April 17.

That's about the same number as before the release of a video Israel claims shows the strike leader secretly eating in his cell.

Barghouti began the hunger strike on April 17, and more than 800 Palestinian prisoners are continuing the protest, according to the Israeli Prison Service.

The statement highlighted that Israeli authorities had prepared ambulances outside of every prison, and said that "the occupation's government treats hunger strikers with such cruelty and savagery to the extent that it is willing to completely exhaust their health and lead them to death".

Barghouti, a leader of the second Palestinian uprising, is serving five life terms after being convicted by an Israeli court of directing two shooting attacks and a bombing that killed five people.

The post sparked fury on Palestinian social media, including calls to boycott the chain.
